Having a laugh about this freezer that went into its final position thisarva. It has taken ten months to and cost thousands to move it four foot :P
It was where the washer is, but that was the coal hole and there wasn’t a door :D @artfulemma.bsky.social

@artfulemma.bsky.social 7-1/4” train buffers. White one is the one I bored wrong. The ones fitted to the buffer beam have their tank tubes slid on. I will TiG those around both ends, carefully :D

Investigation holes for hydraulic buffers. The waggon already has them. These are for actual crashes. So are stronger. And built in oil tanks.

Not a popular Rc truck in the U.K.
